As a tribute to the place where you've created unforgettable memories the past few years, let yourself (and the graduate!) get creative by incorporating your alma mater's colors into a simple cookie tray!

Group store-bought pirouette cookies in a ribbon serve as a nod to graduation scrolls, and add sprinkles on top of chocolate-dipped cookies for a festive pop of color.
